I honestly don't even know where to begin. Carina is hands-down one of the most thoughtful, kind, hard-working, enjoyable, and creative people I have ever met. She handled every single thing with poise and grace. Every wedding plan changes, or has hiccups but frankly I never had to feel those because Carina just handled it with such calm and supportive energy that I didn't even have time to worry about anything at all. I think one of the most unique things about Carina is how she puts her EVERYTHING into making your vision come true. She sat down and HAND-WROTE every single name card (200!!!) because I liked an idea she had. She showed up to my rehearsal dinner with a bouquet for me that she stopped and made herself just so I could have something for that night. Day of was no different, honestly it was almost sad because I knew I wouldn't get to have my fun meetings with her anymore (luckily we are now good friends so I get to do that either way!!) I recommend Carina for your wedding if you want someone to create a vision, to be kind and thoughtful, to listen and show up to every appointment and to put her entire heart into making sure your vision comes to fruition.

I didn't have to worry about how anything looked or how the "flow" of events would work because Bre was on top of it all.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful and glad that we found Myesha at Belton Bliss Events for our wedding. From the first moment we met her, we had a gut feeling that she was the right person to help us, and we were so right. Our wedding was pretty big (140 people) with lots of moving parts, and Myesha was integral to it being the best wedding we could have ever asked for. Our guests raved about how smooth and fun everything was, and we stayed ahead of schedule for almost the entire day. When I asked her mid-day if anything catastrophic had happened, she said "I would never tell you if it had" and I trusted her completely to handle anything that came up. And she did! As a testament to how wonderful Myesha is, and how she will go above and beyond for her couples: At the end of the night, we left the venue for our after party... and about an hour later, we realized Myesha had walked over to tell us that we'd left our cake and leftover food behind! We were prepared to send a family member to grab it, but Myesha instead got our hotel key, ran across town and delivered everything to our room so it was there when we got back from our after-party. Even when I woke up at 4 am on the wedding day with an idea for something I wanted to make happen, she said "Don't worry about it" and made it happen. We love Myesha, and you cannot go wrong hiring her!

I can’t recommend booking her enough, even if you think you’ve “already got this”— she has a ton of insight and protected us from getting too stressed over anything. She went above and beyond her stated duties and we felt so fortunate. She held our hands when we needed it, but also gave us the flexibility and room to make our own creative decisions. That being said- her design instincts are broad for any theme, and absolutely gorgeous. Her team is fabulous too- very professional, detail oriented.

Once we saw our engagement shoot pictures, I knew we had made the right decision in selecting someone to capture our special day! Megan helped us develop a timeline and prioritize elements and details of our wedding that were most important for us to capture. Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly.

Sarah started playing harp for weddings in 2009 at the age of 14. She has loved playing at weddings, anniversary parties, rehearsal dinners, and elopements ever since. She effortlessly brings ambiance of every event she attends, creating a magical atmosphere with her music. Whether your dream wedding is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Sarah will help bring your vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am writing this review about Sarah. First of all, she was so great at being responsive which right off the bat was a big deal for me. Planning a wedding is stressful but during our first initial meet through Zoom I was immediately put at ease. Second, booking her was extremely easy and fairly priced. Thirdly, she was on time and I balled my eyes out walking down the aisle to beauty and the beast. I've never heard the harp in person and it was an experience I will never forget. She made my event elegant and elevated in all the right ways. If I ever have an excuse to bring Sarah back to another event, I WILL and will recommend her to anyone looking for calm, beautiful music for any event. Thank you thank you thank you Sarah!

Hello, my name is DJ Joey B. My job is to make your next event, One To Remember! I do not scratch, I just play the best music tailored to your event. I have been DJing professionally since 2005. I have had the opportunity to DJ all types of events. I got my start while I was working for Pearson Music Company. While there I was learning about live sound setups and DJ setups. I made friends with many of the local DJ’s in the area. They told me I should put my love of music together with my knowledge of sound equipment and bring music to the masses.

I have too many amazing things to say about Joey. He was on it from the very beginning and offered so much more than music! He was attentive and insightful to every aspect of our wedding and I learned so much from him. He made it so easy and so fun!!

We're a husband & wife wedding photography & videography team! We're pretty big fans of each other, so we're pretty big fans of working together. We got married on 2/15/2020, and it was undoubtedly the happiest day of our lives — so now we spend our time helping others remember the happiest day of theirs through stunning photo & video. :)

We absolutely loved working with these two. They are such an amazing duo to work with and really know what they’re doing. The attention to detail, the ease of communication and most importantly the finally outcome of their work is some of the best I’ve ever seen. They have the ability to not only capture exactly what you are looking for, they are also able to capture all of those amazing candid moments as well that mean so much. At the end of the day what makes them one of the best to work with is, their attention to detail. And for them you can tell it’s not just a job, it’s a passion and it shows!

This venue is by far the best one out there. It is absolutely STUNNING. The brick walls, chandeliers, beautiful drapes- all of it, just beautiful. The staff was so wonderful, kind, and attentive. Every bartender and server was delightful (special shout out to Susanna and Sarah! You made my mom, the mother of the bride, feel like a million bucks! And that cooling towel for my husband was clutch!) They ensured every guest was happy throughout the entire evening. The food was outstanding - highlights were the chicken and waffle appetizer, Mac and cheese, and prime rib! But honestly compliments to the chef on every item!!

A little about me: I grew up in North Carolina, moved to Florida, and now I am back in North Carolina. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me lounging at home with my two Aussies (because, let’s be honest, they run my household). Dogs are my world, which is why I’m always equipped with at least two lint rollers during every shoot (I’ve pretty much achieved Master Lint Roller status by now). Every moment is special and worth capturing, and my job is to help tell your story in a way that honors your love and feelings for one another.

Blythe Eland Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding day. From the first moment we spoke with Blythe, she was so easy and pleasant to communicate with - she knew exactly what she was doing so we could just show up and she would handle everything with grace and ease. Blythe was incredible throughout the entire process, and we were so happy with our experience shooting with her. She was so helpful and on top of everything, and managed to capture exactly what we wanted while also adding her own beautiful artistic flair. We couldn't believe how amazing the photos turned out - Blythe has such a compassionate, wholesome, and genuine approach that is truly reflected in the outstanding quality of her work. We are so grateful to Blythe for helping make our special day even more perfect.

We also did our Bar through Catering By Design which made it so easy and convenient to work with the same company for both the food and the drinks. We did buffet style and it was an absolute hit!

Juniper and Rose Flowers

  • Serves Research Triangle Park, NC

I am a stay-at-home mom of three who loves flowers. Growing up on my family farm I foraged flowers and foliage to make arrangements for friends and neighbors. I love dreaming about weddings with brides and designing lovely arrangements out of stunning local flowers. Flowers are so gorgeous on their own, it is a delight to work with them. My dream of having my own flower farm is finally a reality! When you book me, your flowers will be unique and fully local, from my farm and other local farms. I especially enjoy using seasonal flowers because they lend their own character to the finished designs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Awarded Best of Zola
We met with Camille, the owner of Juniper and Rose, several months before the wedding date to discuss the flowers. Neither my wife nor I had any real background in flowers and decorating, so we came into the meeting with only very vague ideas. Camille spent a lot of time walking us through choosing our decorating inspirations and the various flowers that she recommended, as well as adapting all our conversations to our wedding colour combo of navy and green. Honestly, giving her the creative freedom to work in response to a couple of inspiration pictures and our discussion about flowers was the best choice that we could have made in choosing a florist. She took those half dozen pictures and vague references to an arch and "extra flowers like a meadow?" and turned it into the most gorgeous installation that she assembled for us on the spot the day before the wedding. We loved that she used recycled and upcycled materials for the arch rather than single use mass market items, and her design used live greenery wherever possible. Her prices were phenomenal too and she adjusted where we needed to fit in our budget, and we couldnt be happier with the results.

Amanda and Todd truly made our wedding memorable. All the guests commented on how beautiful their property is. Very professional and easy to work! We toured eight venues before my husband came across their venue and it was a fantastic decision. They have so many options for where you want your ceremony to be held. Fortunately we had perfect weather, but their venue has the best back-up plan to hold a beautiful ceremony indoors if you need to or want to!

Hi, I'm Coby! I am so excited you are here! It is a privilege to be invited to some of the most pivotal and beautiful moments in people's lives. My couples choose me to preserve true, honest memories of their newly forming family tree. They trust me to truly see these connections and document them with professionalism and artistic ability so that they come away with photos that are treasured for the rest of their lives.

I worked with Coby at a fall wedding in Raleigh, and she was a dream photographer for my client. She spent several months before the wedding helping myself and my client prepare for their wedding, which made wedding photography the day of extremely smooth. From the first moment of inquiry to well beyond the final delivery of the wedding gallery, she made the whole wedding planning process a team event.

I'm going to REALLY try to not make this review an entire novel. Cutting straight to the chase BOOK THEM! Chef John and Natasha (and entire team) were exceptional from DAY ONE! Yes the venue is gorgeous, but the people really make the place. They have several packages to book from. I loved having options. I had weekly questions lol, they answered expeditiously, detailed and were never rude (not one time). THE FOOD babyyyy; mouth watering. They provide the wedding party lunch and it's real food not just a sandwich tray. They always said "we make sure our bride and goom eat", and they kept that promise. We ate and we ate good! Our guest were also very happy! Lastly, they somehow have a way of making you feel like you are the only wedding that is going on and obviously that is not the case. Their attention to detail was exactly what we needed. This helped us check things off our box and also recall things that we may have forgotten or not thought about. Based on the excessive use of exclamation points you can tell we were very happy with The Chandelier Wedding & Event Venue. You will not regret booking your event here!
